Some say the world will end in fire,
Some say in ice.
From what I've tasted of desire
I hold with those who favor fire.
But if it had to perish twice,
I think I know enough of hate
To say that for destruction ice
Is also great
And would suffice.

- Robert Frost

*The above is my favorite poem.
Notice how the speaker ends the poem in a
crisp metaphoric tone like that of the ice.
Quite succint.
